Blue-Eyed Devil by Lisa Kleypas
4.0
Hardy Cates, the man I formed a very negative image of in the previous book, and a naive Haven Travis find their happily ever after in this one. No, this is not a spoiler as the synopsis as good as says this.
Like the previous book, there is an instance that I am glossing over because it goes against something I staunchly believe in. And likewise a star is being socked off for that.
The thing that needs a mention is the strength of the woman in this scenario. The way she gets herself out of an abusive situation albeit a little late but that also depicts reality of the situation as from what I understand one needs to first come to terms with themselves and realise that they do not deserve what's being dished out to them. I applaud her for finding the courage to move on and getting to understand that she is not to blame!
As for Hardy, I will say he may have redeemed himself in this one but I am not ready to forgive him yet. It can be called a prejudice against this man or whatever but for me Haven is the star in this one.
My rating for the most part is for the way a very prominent social issue being highlighted in this story.
